Definitions
- a pivoting member groove 20 a , 20 b is formed on the housing portion 12 a , 12 b inner surface spaced apart and above the slider groove 18 a , 18 b and extends along a forward portion of the slider groove and beyond a forward end 19 a , 19 b of the slider groove.
- the pivoting member groove has a first longitudinal portion 22 a , 22 b and a second transverse portion 24 a , 24 b which in the exemplary embodiment extends downward at an acute angle 26 a , 26 b less than 90° relative to the first longitudinal portion 22 a , 22 b .
- the angle 26 a , 26 b can be any angle in the range from 60° to 90°. In the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS.
- a slider 38 as for example shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 is mounted within the housing such that it is guided along the slider grooves 18 a , 18 b .
- the slider has a body 40 bounded by two spaced apart side surfaces 42 a and 42 b , respectively.
- One or more spaced apart projections 44 a and 44 b extend from each side surface, respectively. These projections are received within the slider grooves 18 a and 18 b , respectively for guiding the slider along the slider grooves.
- the slider body has an upper surface 46 and lower edges 48 . In the shown exemplary embodiment, the lower edges are relatively flat.
- the upper surface 46 tapers (i.e., inclines) in a rearward direction such that the thickness of the body decreases in a rearward direction.
- a setter 210 is coupled to the extendible member 206 as for example shown in FIG. 10 .
- the setter includes a pin 212 that is received within the slot 121 , 121 a defined between the pivoting member and the reload arm.
- the setter comprises a body portion 214 and two arms 216 extending symmetrically from either end of the body.
- a pin 212 extends transversely from each arm.
- all the aforementioned exemplary embodiments may be formed with projections instead of grooves and grooves instead of projections.
- the first part may be formed with a groove and instead of the groove, the second part may be formed with a projection such that the projection of the second part mates with the groove of the first part.
